PANEL DISCUSSION:

Security awareness has been on the agenda for years, yet human behaviour remains one of the most consistently exploited vulnerabilities in any organisation. As the volume and sophistication of threats grows, the question is no longer whether culture matters but how to actually build one that sticks. This panel explores what it takes to move past training programmes and embed security into the way people work, think and make decisions day to day.

FIRESIDE CHAT:

Identity is the most consistent thread running through real world breaches, and as environments fragment and machine identities multiply, the problem is outpacing most teams. This panel covers three of the most pressing challenges right now: managing access through constant organisational change, detecting insider threats before they escalate, and governing non-human identities without becoming a blocker to engineering.

PANEL DISCUSSION:

As resilience moves up the business agenda, security leaders are being asked to manage competing priorities that don't always sit comfortably together. This panel gets into the reality of building programmes that genuinely perform under pressure, from navigating the tension between prevention and recovery, to using compliance as a lever for business alignment rather than a checkbox exercise.

KEYNOTE:

This session takes the audience inside a real attack. The methodical process of observing an organisation from the outside, connecting people, systems and routines, and finding the gap that was always there.

The audience sees which signals were missed, where the bank could have intervened, and how small changes would have shut the door before it was ever opened.

The lesson: attackers don't win at the point of breach. They win long before it.

The CLS team and our host kick off the day with a warm welcome. Grab your seat as we outline some housekeeping, what to expect, and how to get the most out of your time!

With regulations piling up, how do you prioritise what actually matters?

How do you build real assurance across a supply chain you don't control?
